Father Bob Geldof And Husband Thomas Cohen Lead Tributes For Peaches Geldof

Peaches Geldof’s father, musician and political activist BobGeldof, has paid tribute to his 25-year-old daughter, who passed away earlier today. Her death is being treated as “unexplained.”"We are beyond pain,” read the statement. "She was the wildest, funniest, cleverest, wittiest and the most bonkers of all of us."

"Writing 'was' destroys me afresh. What a beautiful child. How is this possible that we will not see her again? How is that bearable? We loved her and will cherish her forever. How sad that sentence is.”

"Tom and her sons Astala and Phaedra will always belong in our family, fractured so often, but never broken. Bob, Jeanne, Fifi, Pixie and TigerGeldof."

Peaches’ husband ThomasCohen also released a statement today.

The couple had two children, Astala, who was almost 2-years-old, and Phaedra, 11 months. The former model also leaves behind sisters Fifi, Pixie and Tiger Lily.

"My beloved wife Peaches was adored by myself and her two sons," Cohen said in the statement. "I shall bring them up with their mother in their hearts everyday. We shall love her forever."

A number of Peaches’ friends and even those who didn’t know her took to Twitter to pay their respects to the 25-year-old this evening.

LilyAllen wrote: “My thoughts are with Peaches' family at this awful time. I hope they get to grieve in peace. Peaches, rest in peace gorgeous girl,” while friend DaisyLowe merely tweeted an emoji of a broken heart shortly after the news broke.

McFly’s TomFletcher also wrote on the social networking site: “Just heard about Peaches Geldof. So, so awful. Really sad. Thoughts going out to her family” and TheSaturdays’ UnaFoden added: “Such incredibly sad news. R.I.P Peaches Geldof."

Singer BoyGeorge, who was a contemporary of her father’s on the ‘80s music scene, said he had only spoken to the former model recently: “Poor sweet Peaches Geldof. We spoke only a month ago and she looked like an angel. This is truly sad. Poor Bob! R.I.P.”
